            preds : list or numpy 1-D array
                The predicted values.
            train_data : Dataset
                The training dataset.
            grad : list or numpy 1-D array
                The value of the first order derivative (gradient) for each sample point.
            hess : list or numpy 1-D array
                The value of the second order derivative (Hessian) for each sample point.

53
        For binary task, the preds is margin.
54
55
56
57
        For multi-class task, the preds is group by class_id first, then group by row_id.
        If you want to get i-th row preds in j-th class, the access way is score[j * num_data + i]
        and you should group grad and hess in this way as well.

            preds : list or numpy 1-D array
                The predicted values.

            is_higher_better : bool
                Is eval result higher better, e.g. AUC is ``is_higher_better``.

74
        For binary task, the preds is probability of positive class (or margin in case of specified ``fobj``).
75
76
        For multi-class task, the preds is group by class_id first, then group by row_id.
        If you want to get i-th row preds in j-th class, the access way is preds[j * num_data + i].
77
78
        To ignore the default metric corresponding to the used objective,
        set the ``metric`` parameter to the string ``"None"`` in ``params``.

    init_model : string, Booster or None, optional (default=None)
80
81
82

84
85
86
87
        Filename of LightGBM model or Booster instance used for continue training.
    feature_name : list of strings or 'auto', optional (default="auto")
        Feature names.
        If 'auto' and data is pandas DataFrame, data columns names are used.
    categorical_feature : list of strings or int, or 'auto', optional (default="auto")
        Categorical features.
        If list of int, interpreted as indices.
        If list of strings, interpreted as feature names (need to specify ``feature_name`` as well).
88
        If 'auto' and data is pandas DataFrame, pandas unordered categorical columns are used.
89
        All values in categorical features should be less than int32 max value (2147483647).
90
        Large values could be memory consuming. Consider using consecutive integers starting from zero.
91
        All negative values in categorical features will be treated as missing values.
92
        The output cannot be monotonically constrained with respect to a categorical feature.
93
    early_stopping_rounds : int or None, optional (default=None)
94
        Activates early stopping. The model will train until the validation score stops improving.
95
96
97
98
        Validation score needs to improve at least every ``early_stopping_rounds`` round(s)
        to continue training.
        Requires at least one validation data and one metric.
        If there's more than one, will check all of them. But the training data is ignored anyway.
99
        To check only the first metric, set the ``first_metric_only`` parameter to ``True`` in ``params``.
100
101
102
        The index of iteration that has the best performance will be saved in the ``best_iteration`` field
        if early stopping logic is enabled by setting ``early_stopping_rounds``.
    evals_result: dict or None, optional (default=None)
103
104
        This dictionary used to store all evaluation results of all the items in ``valid_sets``.

    keep_training_booster : bool, optional (default=False)
        Whether the returned Booster will be used to keep training.
        If False, the returned value will be converted into _InnerPredictor before returning.
        You can still use _InnerPredictor as ``init_model`` for future continue training.

394
    folds : generator or iterator of (train_idx, test_idx) tuples, scikit-learn splitter object or None, optional (default=None)
395
        If generator or iterator, it should yield the train and test indices for each fold.
396
        If object, it should be one of the scikit-learn splitter classes
397
        (https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/classes.html#splitter-classes)
398
        and have ``split`` method.
399
        This argument has highest priority over other data split arguments.
400
    nfold : int, optional (default=5)
wxchan's avatar
wxchan committed
401
        Number of folds in CV.
402
403
    stratified : bool, optional (default=True)
        Whether to perform stratified sampling.
404
    shuffle : bool, optional (default=True)
405
406
407
408
409
        Whether to shuffle before splitting data.
    metrics : string, list of strings or None, optional (default=None)
        Evaluation metrics to be monitored while CV.
        If not None, the metric in ``params`` will be overridden.
    fobj : callable or None, optional (default=None)

422
        Customized objective function.
        Should accept two parameters: preds, train_data,
        and return (grad, hess).

            preds : list or numpy 1-D array
                The predicted values.
            train_data : Dataset
                The training dataset.
            grad : list or numpy 1-D array
                The value of the first order derivative (gradient) for each sample point.
            hess : list or numpy 1-D array
                The value of the second order derivative (Hessian) for each sample point.

423
        For binary task, the preds is margin.
424
425
426
427
        For multi-class task, the preds is group by class_id first, then group by row_id.
        If you want to get i-th row preds in j-th class, the access way is score[j * num_data + i]
        and you should group grad and hess in this way as well.

428
    feval : callable or None, optional (default=None)
429
        Customized evaluation function.
430
431
        Should accept two parameters: preds, train_data,
        and return (eval_name, eval_result, is_higher_better) or list of such tuples.
432
433
434
435
436
437

            preds : list or numpy 1-D array
                The predicted values.
            train_data : Dataset
                The training dataset.
            eval_name : string
438
                The name of evaluation function (without whitespaces).
439
440
441
442
443
            eval_result : float
                The eval result.
            is_higher_better : bool
                Is eval result higher better, e.g. AUC is ``is_higher_better``.

444
        For binary task, the preds is probability of positive class (or margin in case of specified ``fobj``).
445
446
        For multi-class task, the preds is group by class_id first, then group by row_id.
        If you want to get i-th row preds in j-th class, the access way is preds[j * num_data + i].
447
448
        To ignore the default metric corresponding to the used objective,
        set ``metrics`` to the string ``"None"``.

    feature_name : list of strings or 'auto', optional (default="auto")
        Feature names.
        If 'auto' and data is pandas DataFrame, data columns names are used.
    categorical_feature : list of strings or int, or 'auto', optional (default="auto")
        Categorical features.
        If list of int, interpreted as indices.
        If list of strings, interpreted as feature names (need to specify ``feature_name`` as well).
458
        If 'auto' and data is pandas DataFrame, pandas unordered categorical columns are used.
459
        All values in categorical features should be less than int32 max value (2147483647).
460
        Large values could be memory consuming. Consider using consecutive integers starting from zero.
461
        All negative values in categorical features will be treated as missing values.
462
        The output cannot be monotonically constrained with respect to a categorical feature.
463
    early_stopping_rounds : int or None, optional (default=None)
464
465
466
467
        Activates early stopping.
        CV score needs to improve at least every ``early_stopping_rounds`` round(s)
        to continue.
        Requires at least one metric. If there's more than one, will check all of them.
468
        To check only the first metric, set the ``first_metric_only`` parameter to ``True`` in ``params``.
469
        Last entry in evaluation history is the one from the best iteration.
470
471
    fpreproc : callable or None, optional (default=None)

478
        If True, progress will be displayed at every boosting stage.
        If int, progress will be displayed at every given ``verbose_eval`` boosting stage.
    show_stdv : bool, optional (default=True)
wxchan's avatar
wxchan committed
479
        Whether to display the standard deviation in progress.
